D Am Put me on an aeroplane C Em A million miles away D Am She's opened up a book of hate C Em And tore a brand new page D Tonight I'll find Am a wishing well C Em Tomorrow's a new day D Tonight I'll find a Am wishing well before C Em it's too late Chorus: D Show me the way Am Show me the way C Why do my dreams Em keep slipping away?
